Why was her hair red?

Simple...

Because she dyed it in the blood of her enemies.

***

One mistake. That was all it took.

Then Lyra was gone - fleeing back to the place she'd been dreaming of ever since they took her... ever since they changed her into what she'd become. Everything went according to her plan. At least it did until she ran into him.

The one who changed everything.

The man bound to her by the crimson string of fate.

He found her one fateful snowy day, but can he keep her safe? 

Old enemies are moving, ghosts of Lyra's shattered past starting to rise as the clock continues to tick leading them towards a future that seems to have been set in stone... meaning the place she once thought of as a sanctuary might not be as safe as she thinks.

Veiled in Light and Ruin by jemicahcolleen

Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.

The Epsilon's Alpha [SAMPLE] by JMiaDavies

Kyra's life as a human is over. Turned into a werewolf against her will, she can only look to one Alpha for help -- but she doesn't know if she can trust him. NOTE: This is only a sample. The full work can be found on Amazon/Kindle. More details are in the last chapter of this book. *** Epsilon: a word both despised and revered across the werewolf world. When Kyra is successfully Turned, she discovers that she is a rare Epsilon -- meaning she will either be the stuff of legend or fresh meat for the taking. Either way, Kyra must fight to keep her throat intact and her secrets close as she sets out to master her untamed gift. But in a court of lies, deception, and beasts who resent her very existence, she must watch her back and guard her heart. Especially when it comes to their leader, Alpha Azriel, a man who is as charming as he is terrifying. Worse yet, he's the only person Kyra can halfway trust. But as Kyra's feelings for Azriel begin to burn through every human assumption she made about their kind, conflicts arise as foreign territories attack. And when dark forces emerge within the court, one thing becomes exceedingly clear: Their kingdom is crumbling, and only she has the power to save it.

Revenge of the Luna Queen by bmacke01

[IMPORTANT SEQUEL ALERT: Book #2 of 'The Lost One' Series] Love. That's what they had. He loved her and she loved him. Kaiden had never been as proud and complete as he did with his mate safe in his arms, his mark on her skin. She was his and he was never going to let her go. Of course, there would be challenges, they were planning to face off - and hopefully take down - some of the most powerful men in their world, but they were gaining followers. They now had other Alphas standing beside them, and a growing pack at their backs, and each and every one was prepared to fight. To fight for her, and for the good of their species. Because she held the answers, for them, and their whole kind. But, the unthinkable happens. Aislinn is gone. Disappearing in the night, she takes his love and their hope with her. Kaiden is determined to get her back, the problem will be if Aislinn wants to be found. Anger. She had tried. Had given into fate, succumbed to the selfish desire to be typical, to be happy, but she wasn't those things. She wasn't unbroken. Or normal. Or whole. She was completely and absolutely, irreparably, shattered. For five years she had planned, had lived only for vengeance, then her mate had come and swept her away. He'd broken through her walls and restarted her heart. She loved him. Even as broken and twisted as she was, she knew she loved him. She was so proud, so happy that she wore his mark, but some things could not be erased. Even by love. Some things could not be forgotten. Could never be forgiven. Fate. The entire werewolf world is on the brink of war. Packs and Alphas are beginning to choose sides, and the stakes will only grow as the whispers of Royal succession and a lost Heir begin to surface. Fate brought Kaiden and Aislinn together, but in the face of their pasts and all that is out to rip them apart, it may not be enough to keep them. ©Revenge of the Luna Queen

Midnight Playground by Animesooty

"Did you think it was brave? Or did you think it was necessary? To defy me." His words felt like a knife twisting in her gut and his silver eyes drunk in her fear at his leisure. "Oh no, let me guess, you wanted to hold onto that 'humanity' of yours for just a little longer?" He scoffed and the colour drained from her face. He bent down slowly, tangling his fingers within her hair before he yanked her forwards, craning her neck to meet his glare. She withheld the shriek that threatened to escape from her. Eyes now locked, she watched in horror as his irises began to cloud over. "Your soul is mine." He let the hair fall loosely across her face, chuckling low into her ears. "And it's as black as my own." A shudder ran down her spine. "Never forget that you belong to me." She felt numbed, dizzied, like someone had just dodged her best right hook and had been knocked off balance. Even after everything, the feeling was unfamiliar to her. He leant his face in closer, purposely letting his fangs fall over his bottom lip. "Forget it, and you may not be the one who suffers the consequences of it." ----------------------------------------------------------------- Cassie Ellis didn't have the greatest start in life.

I could imagine how he would stalk to me, his head high with all his teeth showing. His pure white fur not being touched by the dust he had created when he chased after me. I can only imagine how every step for him would be a leap for me. That blood would hang from his mouth and drip onto the forest floor but not even faze his fangs. I was terrified of him. Even if I couldn't bring myself to mention it, to be weak and choose to submit. These thoughts kept me running, the invisible echo of a laugh that wasn't really there stayed in my ear, even though he was nowhere to be. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• He was terrifying, but yet, at he same time he was safe.

Shadows by writer_gone_soft

"A soulmate." He starts, his voice bounces off the wall of the empty room. "There is nothing more beautiful in the world than them, for they are the epitome of perfect. They are the part you've been searching for forever. The cynosure for each other. Made for each other, like a puzzle, complete. Their scent so beautiful you could smell it for centuries and never get tired of it." He crouches in front of my figure. Lifting his hands and places them on my face and sparks fly across my cheeks, birthing joyful butterflies in my stomach. His eyes dance down my face, and his thumbs move to trace the outline of my cold lips. How much I find myself wanting to lean closer and savor the contact. "There are our better halves, making us whole" --- King meets his Queen Both have memories that are better left untouched. But are they willing to make an exception for each other? Book #1 of the Soul series.

Chains of Rebirth (Dusk Series - Book 8) by AmeliaCrossGE

Lyra Cinder is cast out from the Fort, the largest remaining training settlement for human mages outside of the Alliance. Without a killer extinct and far too much use of her conscience, she is of no use to the mages who have refused peace with their vampire neighbors. With a band of misfits and Fort rejects, Lyra sets out on a journey to find her place as well as a meaning to all of the fighting around her. It seems like a straight forward path until Lyra comes back from a supply run to find the boys have made sport of kicking around a stray vampire. Though she wishes to release him, the sharpness of his ice eyes cuts right into her soul even shackled and beaten on the ground. This stranger could just be the death of all of them, or perhaps he could be her destiny. When Lyra runs face first into the carnage caused by a notorious masked murder known only as The Fool, she is helpless to stop him from slaughtering the soldiers of the Zero rebellion. Though the Zero started as a vampire-hating group that threw society to the brink of extinction, most now are just humans run from their homes in times of war and desperate for shelter or food and willing to fight for it. The world is brittle and broken, and Lyra finds herself walking the same path as The Fool, whether it be breaking bread or chasing him down to stop his rampage. On that path, she meets allies, a man she loves even though their chances are slim, and she hopes that all of them can find a way to peace.

Violet String {EDITING} by IllenisThorn

Cursed with violet eyes, abandoned at the side of the road as a child before finally being taken in by the church... now she owes them everything, and she's sworn to repay the ones who saved her-from her misery of a life and her own demons too. So when the children she looks after for that same church start disappearing, she knows the time has come. She'll save them even if it means using the so-called Gift she's kept hidden for years. She was ready for the world to find out. She just wasn't ready for him... her mate... because he's got demons of his own, hovering around him... And she's one of them.
